I Shing Temple
is situated at the multi-clan village of Wang Chau
in Yuen Long. The temple was constructed by the villagers
around the 57th year of Kangxi (1718) to promote communal
spirit. It was dedicated to the worship of the two
deities, Hung Shing and Che Kung. The building is
a two-hall structure with an open courtyard in between.
Although it underwent renovations in the 1970s and
1980s, most of its original features were kept intact.
The temple was declared a monument in 1996. Full restoration
was carried out in the same year with funds from the
Hong Kong Jockey Club.
